Next up
Just a reminder. It's coming on the 16th, assuming nothing goes wrong.
I realize some players just want to play the game and see the story, while others may actually want to use those revival items, so here's a little compromise for you all.
Also, yes, I NEED to put on that "Pro" flag everywhere.
Trying to do that Infinite Floor thing (technically, it's a trick of the camera), and I think it chugs.
Makes sense, since it's drawing on one surface over and over for each scanline, then putting that on another surface, which puts that on-screen.
Hmm...
I was considering releasing the expansion today, but then I found a lot of bugs I should've spotted in the original build, and I made the minimap do extra stuff for said expansion.
Don't worry, it'll be out by tomorrow night.
This is the driving sequence in action.
I don't have any original music for that part, and I can imagine that passing-through-flags sound getting annoying after a while.
The next update may be full of bugs.
...moths, mostly.
Almost there...
There's gonna be a second driving section without walls later.
I hope you appreciate what I go through for pointless details like this.
I don't plan on going this crazy too much, though.
Like I said before, draw_background_tiled_ext() can't do rotation. ...but if I'm not rotating, I can use it without consequence for an infinite floor.
I'm gonna work on a system for the road to constantly spawn objects as I move forward in a sequence.
Here I am, still trying to push the limits. I'm pretty sure there's a shader for Mode 7 out there, but this is what I've been working with.
Also, because of limitations, red flashing floors generate force fields you can bump into.
